Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Breeding Tips and Tricks
I have searched for a thread such as this and did not find one. So I am starting one!
Come one come all... and post up any and all breeding tips or tricks.
not looking for "rules of thumb" or "general knowledge".
looking for something someone may have told you that you may not have known that did the trick and got your BP's to start breeding, improved your breeding schedules, clutch #'s, reduced slugging, improved sex drives... what ever it may be!

I don't know if this goes for everybody, but I've found that all my males ( even at 400-ish grams ) have high sex drives. Just like humans these poor little guys do all the work. I feel bad for the big guys circling, and nosing their tubs until it's time to be paired.

heard if you put a ready to breed female's shed in with a male it improves their drive a bit haven't tested it out yet though.

I also have heard that if you leave a shed in there it improves their drive

Pairing up before a storm I read can get snakes in the mood- I actually just tried this out. 2 of the three i paired p locked. I was getting no locks for a bit, and i paired them up the day of a snow storm... I think i read its the change in the baromatic pressure or something.

clearing sperm pluges out of a non breeding male might also help a lockup to happen.

Feed the female prior to introducing male. I found that tip on a breeders site, and with doing so, my spider is locked up within the first night. It seems if the female doesn't eat prior to introducing them it takes a bit longer for him to "get going". Coincidence???
